Scripting: upper limit on the number of points in a clipping path to be converted to selection?

Greetings,

I work with some great with rather complex clipping paths tiff files and have written a script to convert a path to a selection, invert the selection, and delete pixels to downsample and save a PNG image with transparent background for the web.

If the number of points in the clipping path is greater than 1000, Photoshop stops with a message 'Illegal Argument' and will not make the choice. "Making selection...". "the choice in the path palette manually works fine and works almost instantly.

The problem is especially frustrating since the manual selection is so easily.

Does anyone know how to give more points or to override this limit? I would also like to experiment with a scriptable command to simplify the path arbitrarily if there is no way around the problem at hand.

Thank you

When you say a clipping path, do you mean a vector path of a layer?  Created in the document, or you all ready clipping path create it using the script?  If you simply want to create a png image and a vector mask, can't you reverse the vector mask and or copy in which layer you want to cut, then resize?  You don't need a raster image to create a png image.

  • Is there an upper limit on the number of points that can be plotted using a CW 3 - d graph?

    I started with one of the examples 3-d graphics available on this site. I think it's the 3-d cube (?).

    If I just use the 'Plot3DCurve' method and set the style of track to be the "point", I can trace my data set (approximately 150,000 points) OK.

    If I change the stlye of land on 'line', I get a big blank chart with the exception of the last points of support 30 000 where the plot seems correct.

    If I reduce my data set to 30,000 points seems the sytle of 'line'.

    There is NO error is returned.

    I get similar results if I select a style of track of 'surface '.

  • Is there a limit on the number of hot spots, that we can include on a screen?

    Is there a limit on the number of hot spots, that we can include on a screen? I'm putting in about 25, but it is defaulted to 10?

    Hot point quiz questions are indeed limited in the number, you can have on a slide.

    When it comes to normal blades, using ordinary boxes by clicking, you could easily have 25 or more, but then your score will be much more complex and it will not be a true quiz question.  Each separate click box can be set up to score separately.

  • apex_application.g_fxx - is there a limit to the number of lines of treatment?

    Hello

    is there a limit to the number of lines, I'm processing in a relationship with apex_application.g_fxx?

    I have a report with 7000 lines. My pk_row is apex_item.display_and_save(1,pk_id).

    When I want to loop through these lines after submit and access with apex_application.g_fxx, I get the error "page not found".
    If I have just 500 lines or 1000, it works.

    Please help, it's urgent :-(

    I'm going to guess it's the parameter maxplsqlparameters for your instance of the Apex.

    I had this happens with forms tabular and master / detail where you have a large number of lines or a number high columns resulting in a product that exceeds the value of the parameter (the number of parameters is something like lines * columns more some other small hold there).

    By default, this setting is installed in 2000 (so we had some forms had slightly more than 60 rows and columns 30 - ish which would be run against this on submit.)

    We have increased this setting to 10000 and so far, so good. We have noticed no ill effects of this. We arrived at this functional entry number based on key end users on the largest number of lines they would probably see at some point in the page.

  • Can't remember how to access my setings bcc, so how to cancel the limit on the number that I can answer in what concerns?:

    Received a message that had been directed to a number of recipients and wanted to respond to all:, but who exceeded my limit on the number of addresses for to: and Thunderbird would not accept.

    I went through a process of establishing a way to have e-mail messages to multiple recipients automatically addressed to bcc

    Maybe it's a supplement that you have installed.

    As part of this process, I put a limit on the number of recipients that would be treated as "to:.".

    Is Thunderbird built-in AFAIK. Check your add-ons and all the settings that you can do.

  • Bouba Analyzer: How to control the number of points per decade?

    Total newbie here. I can't control the number of points per decade in the Bode VI. It's always 5 points per decade.

    Don't know even how to get the Version of Elvis #, but it is at a minimum 4.1, because Elvis installer will install 4.1 (said the current version is most recent). Running Windows XP.

    How can I get Elvis to respond to my request for more points per decade?

    Mike

    Hi Mike,.

    If you are still curious about what drivers you have installed, you can view by using the Measurement & Automation Explorer (start"all programs" National Instruments"Measurement & Automation Explorer).  "Once their, go to my system" software and you'll find NI ELVISmx and its version.

    This behavior you're seeing is a known, class problem under Corrective Action Request (CAR) #373017.  For now, the number of points per decade will remain at 5.  Please wait for the next update of NOR-ELVISmx to see if this problem is fixed.

    See you soon,.

    If you are testing on simulators on the same PC running the same MDS Simulator, the article on connection limits may apply.

    Sorry beat me to it, I've never had the OS 5.0 browser throw up his hands on a download I created it, that the OS 6.0 browser was fine with.  The size of your files is not huge.

    If you really want to count the MDS Simulator out run, start the WiFi on the 5.0 OS simulator (manage connections--> set up the Wi - Fi network, you follow the nose, and then start the WiFi on the device), then change the configuration of the default browser (--> Advanced--> browser Options) in the Hotspot browser.  Stop the MDS Simulator and see if you can still browse.  Then, try the download again.

  • No limit on the number of installation for a license key Open

    Thank you.

    Not the number of relocations, you can reinstall as many times as you want, but there is a limit on the number of activations, you can do on the Internet. If you pass the threshold, you may need to use the activation of the phone on the same machine.

    Some will use multiple activation keys which could have a number of activations.

  • Is there a limit on the number of times you can use the recovery CD

    I have a desktop a6242n and the failed hard drive, I installed a new and inserted the recovery CD and it comes up with the message that this is not the correct CD for this computer. I made them when I first got the computer and used without problem. Is there a limit on the number of times I can use the recovery CD? If I buy a new game that will work?

    Hello

    There is no limit to how many times you can perform a recovery from the discs. The issue is likely because the hard drive does not have DMI information loaded on it. You will perhaps call HP and order a set of recovery disks and ask them to guide you through access to tools on the recovery disk to reload this information on the disc, assuming they are available.

    Good luck!

  • Is there a limit on the number of target makes f: AJAX?

    JSF2.1
    2.1.7 - jbossorg-1 (20120227-1401) of the Mojarra

    Is there a limit on the number of items to display on an ajax call? It seems that only the first three items in the list delimited by spaces of the IDS are returned. Nothing after the 3rd id is ignored.

    For example, the following text:
    <h:commandButton id="search" value="Search" action="#{memberDTO.retrieveMemberDetails()}">
        <f:ajax execute="f_planCode f_mbrId" render="memberName f_mbrRefId allMemberDetails notesPanel"/>
    </h:commandButton>
    ... will make properly components with the ID of 'MemberName', 'f_mbrRefId' and 'allMemberDetails '. The component with the id of "notesPanel" is NOT rendered. If I pass the 3rd and 4th ID like below:
    <h:commandButton id="search" value="Search" action="#{memberDTO.retrieveMemberDetails()}">
        <f:ajax execute="f_planCode f_mbrId" render="memberName f_mbrRefId notesPanel allMemberDetails"/>
    </h:commandButton>
    .. correctly renders the components with ID of 'MemberName', 'f_mbrRefId' and 'notesPanel '. The component with the id of "allMemberDetails" is NOT rendered.

    (1) is supposed to be the case?
    (2) if not, is this a bug?

    You don't know what just assume you that. All you know is that you don't get the result you expect, it's a completely different question that new rendering does not really. If what you say is true, I expect the notesPanel also not again.

    Different survey: why is the possibilities of Control Panel, but you're not getting the results expect you? Sure you'll find something when you do a search in this perspective.

  • The limit to the number of columns to display in the report. Help!

    Maybe this is a stupid question. But why get this error with a report of the IR? and what is the solution for this. Please help me with this.

    Oh... And I also have a blob column... If the format is not given, the table is very good... but happen to get this error only when the BLOB download format is given.

    Hello

    I implemented a small suitcase of test on apex.oracle.com and I get the error even if I use the download format.

    I have a table
    test_blob (identification number, name varchar2 (10), blobcont blob)

    If I create IR as

      select
        id,
        name,
        blobcont
      from test_blob
    

    and then I set the download format I got the error.

    If you want this to work you need to change your query to

      select
        id,
        name,
        dbms_lob.getlength(blobcont) blobcont
      from test_blob
    

    And there still define download for blob on column blobcont format.

    Kind regards
